I started this thread and I'm at the point of knowing I don't want to continue with this clutch/pressure plate setup.

I come out of the rear engined open wheel indy car road race world, so I know clutch setups choices are like toothbrushes, everybody needs one and there are lots of good and bad options. The question for everyone is, which setup will work best for me. As far as I know, here are my priorities in order:

1. No slipping with a 550HP motor, 6,250 limit, TKO 600, 3:46 gear, 315/17 street tire, 2,300 lbs
2. No racing or hard launches, spirited street once in a while of course
3. I don't want to do this again
4. Pedal pressure medium to light hard is OK, but not desired (I can adjust pedal pressure with the cylinders if need be).
5. Might consider changing the shield also if there is a good reason
6. Cost is not that important if it meets everything else and I don't have to do it again.

I really appreciate the help and opinions
